- [testers.shellcheck](https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/#tester-shellcheck) now warns when `name` is not provided.
The `name` argument will become mandatory in a future release.
+- `grafana-agent` and `services.grafana-agent` have been removed in favor of
+ Grafana Alloy (`grafana-alloy` and `services.alloy`), as they depend on an EOL compiler version
+ and will become EOL during the 25.05 lifecycle.
+ Grafana recommends migrating to `grafana-alloy` (`services.alloy`).
+ See https://grafana.com/docs/alloy/latest/set-up/migrate/ for details.
+
- `xdragon` package has been renamed to `dragon-drop`.
`xdragon` is an alias to `dragon-drop` and the package still provides `bin/xdragon`.
`bin/dragon` is no longer supplied.
